[0003] At the connection of the RF connector, sometimes a curved connection is required, such as a 90° connection. In this curved connection, a hole needs to be opened on the side of the connector, and then the wire is inserted into the side hole and the internal connector for welding. In order to facilitate the welding of the wire and the connector, a hole needs to be opened on the top of the connector to facilitate the welding operation.

[0004] The top opening of the connector needs to be closed after welding is completed, and a cover is often used in the prior art for closing the hole. However, after closing the hole with the cover, fixing the cover to the top opening of the connector becomes a big problem. Because the part of the cover inserted into the top opening is very short, it is easy to fall off later. Summary of the invention

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 Shown

[0028] A curved radio frequency connector with a cover fixing structure comprises an outer cylinder 10, an inner cylinder 20, a cover 60 and a cable 70. A connector 50 is arranged in the inner cylinder cavity 22 of the inner cylinder 20. The inner cavity of the outer cylinder 10 is adapted to the inner cylinder 20. A fixing portion 11 with the same inner diameter is integrally arranged on the top of the outer cylinder 10. The lower edge of the fixing portion 11 and the top of the inner cylinder 20 are located on the same horizontal plane. An annular conical surface 62 is processed on the top outer edge of the cover 60. The cable 70 passes through the side openings on the outer cylinder 10 and the inner cylinder 20 and is welded to the connector 50, and then the cover 60 is pressed onto the top of the inner cylinder 20. The fixing portion 11 is bent inwardly to press against the annular conical surface 62, thereby fixing the cover 60 to the top of the inner cylinder 20.

[0029] In the present invention, the inner cylinder 20 is first assembled from top to bottom in the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 10, and the side openings on the outer sides of the outer cylinder 10 and the inner cylinder 20 are aligned during the assembly; after the inner cylinder 20 is assembled, the cable 70 is passed through the side openings on the outer cylinder 10 and the inner cylinder 20 and welded to the connector 50. During this process, the top of the inner cylinder cavity 22 in the inner cylinder 20 is in a connected and open state (i.e., the top opening of the connector), thereby facilitating the welding operation of the cable 70 and the connector 50; after welding, the cover plate 60 is pressed onto the top of the inner cylinder 20 (i.e., the top opening of the connector is sealed), and the fixing portion 11 is bent inwardly and pressed against the annular cone 62 to fix the cover plate 60 on the top of the inner cylinder 20, thereby avoiding the problem of the cover plate 60 falling off later.

[0030] The bottom of the cover plate 60 is provided with a lower protrusion 61, and the lower protrusion 61 matches the top of the inner cylinder cavity 22. By providing the lower protrusion 61 and inserting the lower protrusion 61 into the top of the inner cylinder cavity 22 when the cover plate 60 is pressed on the top of the inner cylinder body 20, its sealing performance can be further improved, and the sealing effect is better.

[0031] An annular step 12 is provided in the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 10, and an annular positioning notch 21 is provided at the outer edge of the bottom of the inner cylinder 20, and the annular positioning notch 21 is matched with the annular step 12. When the inner cylinder 20 is assembled into the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 10 from top to bottom, the assembly of the inner cylinder 20 can be limited by providing the annular step 12 and the annular positioning notch 21. When the annular positioning notch 21 abuts against the annular step 12, it means that the inner cylinder 20 is assembled in place, and at this time, the top of the inner cylinder 20 and the lower edge of the fixing part 11 are on the same horizontal plane.

[0032] An insulating sleeve 40 is fixedly sleeved on the top periphery of the connector 50, and an inner convex portion is provided at the bottom of the inner cylinder cavity 22, and the inner convex portion and the insulating sleeve 40 are connected by interference fit. By providing the insulating sleeve 40, it not only plays a role in fixing and installing the connector 50 in the inner cylinder cavity 22, but also limits the connector 50 in the center of the inner cylinder cavity 22, thereby ensuring the creepage distance between the connector 50 and the inner cylinder body 20 and ensuring the stability of the electrical signal transmission; by providing the inner convex portion, the inner diameter of the bottom of the inner cylinder cavity 22 can be shrunk, thereby fixing the positions of the insulating sleeve 40 and the connector 50 by interference fit.

[0033] A welding portion 51 is disposed on the top of the connecting member 50 , and the welding portion 51 and the cable 70 are welded to each other.

[0034] The bottom of the inner cylinder 20 is fixedly connected with a shielding ring 30, and the shielding ring 30 is sleeved on the periphery of the connector 50. The shielding ring 30 plays a role in shielding the signal of the connector 50, thereby ensuring the stability of the radio frequency transmission.

[0035] like Figure 3 Shown

[0036] The ring diameter of the fixing part 11 is less than 2 mm, and the outer edge of the connection between the outer cylinder 10 and the fixing part 11 is in a circumferential cone shape. By limiting the ring diameter of the fixing part 11, it is convenient for the fixing part 11 to bend inwards and press against the annular cone surface 62.

[0037] The fixing portion 11 is provided with a plurality of 111, and the plurality of 111 are equidistantly distributed around the circumference. By providing 111, redundant squeezing of the fixing portion 11 during the process of bending inwardly and pressing against the annular conical surface 62 can be avoided, so that the fixing portion 11 does not fit the annular conical surface 62.

[0038] A fixing method is applied to the above-mentioned curved RF connector with a cover plate fixing structure, and the fixing method comprises the following steps:

[0039] S1. Fixing the inner cylinder 20: insert the inner cylinder 20 from the top of the inner cavity of the outer cylinder 10 from top to bottom until the annular positioning notch 21 abuts against the annular step 12, at which time the top of the inner cylinder 20 and the lower edge of the fixing portion 11 are on the same horizontal plane;

[0040] S2. Connection of the cable 70: Pass the cable 70 through the side openings on the outer cylinder 10 and the inner cylinder 20 and weld them to the connector 50;

[0041] S3. Fixing of the cover plate 60: The cover plate 60 is pressed onto the top of the inner cylinder 20 , and the fixing portion 11 is bent inwardly to press against the annular conical surface 62 to fix the cover plate 60 onto the top of the inner cylinder 20 .

[0042] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit them.
